| haha no i don't have any money. that's why I buy projects. I've never paid more than $1700 for a car.
$1700 59 Buick $1000 59 Pontiac $200 74 Power Wagon $200 1990 Dodge $200 67 Skylark $1500 62 Cat $1500 62 GP $100 79 ford
This GP is super solid and has good interior and the guy says it runs great but has a bad carb.
I think I'm gunna swap grills and trim. I like the Cat grills much better. | |

| Ok, here she is!!!!!! Not as nice as I thought, the pictures the guy sent me must be old. The bumper is tweaked way more than the pictures, theres a little more rust than I figured and the guy took the mirrors off. WTF??? haha I could get it to run off ether after I switched carbs. Tomorrow I'm going to hook the pump up to a gas can and see if I can get it to run on it's own. It's a decent car. I'm also going to give it a good bath. It's from West Texas so it's dusty as hell and has a white haze over the whole car that comes off is you scrub the shit out of it. I have a better bumper, a better fender and I'll probably take the door off the Catalina to replace this one. Over all, I'm pretty happy with the car. | |
